Description
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a
highly crystalline polymer which is very resistant to attack by
corrosives and solvents. It also has extremely good thermal
resistance at temperatures up to 250C. Polytetrafluoroethylene
is used in a broad range of applications, including gasketing, pump parts,
bearings, and anti-stick applications.
